Whilst there are many who do not have an issue with their size and shape... So many of us ARE struggling with either trying to cut down fat in the body or trying to put weight on - bulk up.
Below is an article from Linda Cusmano of Shape-fit.com on foods we can use in our daily nutrition to combat these issues.
Remember every body is different and works at it's own pace - even those from the same family, may have vastly different metabolism. Do not judge yourself on other people's progress. Learn how your body works... maybe through a little trial and error, but listen, feel and watch how your body reacts to certain foods and eliminate or increase as necessary for YOU! Fat is stored to protect your vital organs... so if fat loss is your goal, a regular detox is recommended to rid your body of toxins that build up from daily consumption, breathing, skin care regimes (your skin is your biggest organ) etc for best results. Try Aloe Vera Juice (for detoxing and rebalancing) or Oxypowder Capsules for detoxing your system.
Also remember... calorie's in should equal calories out to stay the same weight! In order to gain weight, you have increase the calories or lessen exercise (calorific output) and vice versa for losing weight!
Always remember to frequently compliment your body and you for your progress; try to keep stress to a minimum; try to have some FUN everyday as part of your daily regime/routine!Mindset is a major part of every thing you do, so stay Positive! Click here to find some tools to help.
Every Success... Be Healthy, Be Happy!
Love & Light...
Gee! :)

It
is believed that certain foods and spices can help you boost your
metabolism which in turn makes you into a fat burning machine. Of
course exercise and proper diet is encouraged but if you can throw
a little punch into your efficiency to burn fat then why not utilize
some of nature's edibles and enhance your work toward those fat
burning goals. Of course many of these such as celery or grapefruit
have not been scientifically proven to increase metabolism yet are
still believed to help by natural practice. Apple cider vinegar
is a favorite for many purposes but one of them being fat burning.
Vitamin C is said to have a fat burning quality so by adding
citrus fruits to your diet you are benefiting yourself in many other
ways as well as the boost. Choices such as lemons, oranges, grapefruit
and limes are excellent on their own or added to your foods. There
are many recipes which utilize these items and the taste is a bonus.
Don't forget tomatoes which are also a fruit high in vitamin C.
Pectin is also a nutrient found in fruits such as apples and berries.
Like the lecithin discussed below, this nutrient will help against
fat absorption into the cells.
It is true that when bodybuilders are going through extreme leaning
stages they eliminate fruits from their diets to some extent but
many still eat fruits during the earlier stages of dieting and some
will still have grapefruit right up to contest time. Do not over
do the amounts you eat per day and you should be fine! 1 -2 pc of
fruit per day is encouraged, filling the other 8-9 servings with
vegetables for a total of 8-10 servings of fruits and veggies per
day as per suggested by the government guidelines.
Soybeans and soy in general have been controversial
in the media but soybeans are a source of lecithin which many people
go out and buy in capsules at your local vitamin or health food
store yet by eating soybeans you get some of this nutrient naturally.
Lecithin is believed to help in the break down of fats in your system
and block the cells from fat deposits.
Garlic is a blood thinner but also seems to have the ability
to break down fat. Most people can take it or leave it but by adding
garlic to your diet, even in amounts you cannot detect, will help
you in your fat burning goals and get a number of other benefits.
Garlic is also a diuretic.
Essential Fatty Acids are fats which ironically aid in fat
burning and weight control. Products such as Omega oils (Udos),
flax meal and flax seed oil, most nuts and seeds actually contain
this (hemp, pumpkin, sunflower, primrose, olive, borage, pistachio,
avocados and almonds) and are essential when you are trying to burn
fat because the elimination of fat completely is unhealthy. You
replace the bad fats with good ones!
Natural diuretics can also help if you are the type to hold
high amounts of water causing bloat. Dandelion is one plant which
can be taken by capsule but many ethnic groups such as Europeans
and Asians will eat the leaves of this plant steamed, boiled or
with other foods which is very healthy. Green Tea is another wonder
herb which is much more than tea and does many other things but
additionally it helps boost the metabolism and is said to increase
energy.
Kelp can be taken by capsule or consumed in its real form. Japanese
use this in their foods and soups but in dry, cold and shredded
form. Kelp is excellent in aiding in water loss.
Onions, pearl onions, shallots and leaks are a related food which are great natural diuretics and help make your food tastier. Cabbage, brussel sprouts asparagus, carrots, celery, beets, cucumber, radishes and lettuce are also said to aid in fat elimination by the minerals they individually carry which vary between them (magnesium, iodine, sulphur, asparagine, carotene, calcium, and iron).

Peppers such as chilies, Cheyenne, and horseradish are also
said to help aid in metabolism boost. All these items listed in
this article have cleansing effects making them all ideal additions
to your daily menu.

many people, a cancer diagnosis challenges their view of themselves as a

survive cancer and be healthy. A basic understanding of how cancer
develops can help you take advantage of what nutrition has to offer.
Food can and should be a part of your plan for reducing the risk of
cancer, and the risk of getting cancer again if you've already had it. To read and comment on the complete article, entitled "How to Turn Off the Cancer Switch" - By Suzanne Dixon, go here. |

The 2 Worst Foods That Make You Fat - One May Shock You
By
Mike Geary
Courtesy of GeeZone
The 2 fattening foods that I'm going to talk about in this
article may actually shock you... most people falsely believe these 2
foods are "healthy". In all of my years working as a Certified
Nutrition Specialist, this usually surprises people when I mention they
should consider eliminating these foods from their diet.
Everybody these days knows how bad trans fats and high fructose corn syrup are for you, so I figured I'd spare you yet another lecture on those... Instead, read on to see a couple foods that may shock you that they may be packing on the blubber.
The first type of food that is often falsely believed to be healthy is wheat products... this includes most breads, cereals, bagels, muffins, pasta, crackers, and so on. And yes, I am including "whole wheat" in the category of this fattening food.
First of all, a large percentage of the population has some degree of intolerance to the gluten in wheat and some other grains. Full blown celiacs are the most sensitive to it, but what most people don't realize is that the majority of the population was never meant to eat large quantities of wheat. The human digestive system has never adapted to large amounts of wheat in the diet.
The introduction of wheat into the human diet has only been in the last couple thousand years, and it has NEVER been in such large quantities in the human diet until the last 80-100 years. This is a small time frame compared to the traditional diet that the human digestive system developed over several hundred thousand years eating a hunter-gatherer diet of meats, fruits, vegetables, nuts, and seeds.
From my experience with many of my clients, when they heed my advice and eliminate wheat from their diet for 2-3 weeks to see if they start to lose weight and feel better, this almost always makes a HUGE difference. Many times, they not only start losing body fat much faster, but they also finally get rid of headaches and indigestion that has plagued them for years. Sometimes even skin problems go away when eliminating wheat from the diet.
The 2nd example of the worst fattening foods that shocks many people because it is thought to be "healthy" is -- fruit juice.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not an anti-carb advocate per se... I actually think most fruits are VERY healthy for us. However, we were NOT meant to separate the juice from the rest of the fruit and only drink the high calorie sugary mixture and leave behind the fiber and other beneficial components of the fruit.
When you only drink the juice of fruits (apple juice and orange juice being 2 of the worst culprits in the western diet), you are not getting the appetite satisfying effect of the fiber in the fruit, and you're left craving more carbs. Also, the fiber in whole fruit helps to slow the blood sugar response when eating whole fruit compared to fruit juice.
Bottom line... overconsuming fruit juices makes you fat. On the other hand, eating whole fruits including all of the fibre helps you maintain a healthy balanced diet and high nutrient density (as long as the rest of your diet is whole unprocessed foods as well).
If you want the REAL truth on eating strategically for permanent fat loss, read these 5 tips for Losing Body Fat the smart and effective way.Everybody these days knows how bad trans fats and high fructose corn syrup are for you, so I figured I'd spare you yet another lecture on those...
